PREFACE. 



The following work is the result of long and careful ex- 
amination of the scriptures touching the matters of which it 
treats. Much has been said and written on some of the 
points herein discussed, while on other points little or nothing 
has been said. Whatever the reader may think of the sub- 
jects discussed and the [conclusions arrived at, he will find 
much Bible to warrant the conclusion. This work is not de- 
nominational in any sense of the word. 

I have not written this for the captious nor the critic; 
but for those who think and are willing to learn. To all such 
J commend the careful reading of these pages.

THE TWO CREATIONS. 



CHAPTER I. 

THE KINGDOM OE ADAM. 

In Matt. 25 34, Jesus says that there was a kingdom 
prepared from the foundation of the world and that the 
saints will inherit it. If there was a kingdom prepared 
from the foundation of the world (and there was one, or 
Christ made a mistake), then Adam was a king. If Adam 
was a king, who was he king over? This question I will 
try to answer in this little book Christ says that the 
saints will inherit the kingdom that was prepared from 
the foundation of the world. To inherit a thing the thing 
inherited must exist or no man could inherit it. If he did 
he would inherit nothing. But Christ said that the saints 
would inherit a kingdom and that it was prepared from 
the foundation of the world. To be a kingdom there has 
to be three things: 1st. There has to be a king. 2d. 
There has to be subjects. 3d. There has to be territory. 
If there was a kingdom from the foundation of the world, 
there are three questions to be settled by the Bible: 1st. 
Who was the king? 2d. Who were it subjects? 3d. What 
was its territory? These three questions I will try to 
.answer by the Word of God: 1st. Adam was the king. 
This I will now undertake to prove by the Word of God. 
It is claimed that Adam was the first and only man that 
Ood ever made. But the Bible nowhere says that Adam 
was the first and only man ever created. In the first of 
Genesis we read of a creation of man, male and female. 
God blessed them and told them to multiply and replenish 
the earth; also to eat of every green herb. Inth is the first 
creation of man and woman on the earth. In Gen. Ch. 2 
we read that God made man out of the dust of the earth 



6 THE TWO CREATIONS. 

and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and he 
become a living soul. You will note that the man in 
this creation is made alone, while in the first creation male 
and female are made at the same time. The last created 
man is called a living soul. This little word soul will help 
us to understand some of the mystery of the Bible. The 
last man created was a type of Christ, (Rom. 5:14). He is 
alone in the garden and we hear God say, "It is not good 
that the man should be alone. I will make an helpmeet for 
him, and the Lord God caused a deep sleep to fall upon 
Adam and he slept; and he took one of his ribs and closed 
up the flesh instead thereof, and the rib which the Lord 
God had taken from man, made he a woman and brought 
her unto the man, (Gen. 2:18-21-22). We will look at this 
again. Adam and his wife were in the garden when the 
serpent beguiled Eve. Now note what God said to Adam 
when he drove him out of the garden: "Cursed is the 
ground for thy sake; in sorrow shalt thou eat of it all the 
days of thy life. Thorns also and thistles shall it bring 
forth to thee, and thou shalt eat the herb of the field, "' 
(Gen. 3:17-18). In the first creation we find that God blessed 
them and told them to eat the herb of the field. In the 
last creation we find that as a curse Adam has to eat the 
herb of the field. From this one statement we see that 
the two creations were not the same one repeated. God 
blessed the first creation and told them to be fruitful and 
multiply. In the last creation, as a curse, God told Eve 
she should bring forth children. (Gen. 3:16). 

The Bible is the history of Adam. Gen. 5 tells us 
this is the book of the generations of Adam. It tells us 
all about Adam's fall, and only gives us passing notice of 
other races as they come in contact with Adam's race. 

Cain kills his brother and is driven from lite 
father's family and goes to the land of JSTod, where 
he knew his wife. Who did Cain marry? If the 
Bible doesn't tell us we can never know. We read 
in Gen. 6:2 "That the sons of God saw the daughters of 
men; that they were fair, and they took them wives of all 
which they chose." Who were the sons of God? We will 



THE TWO CREATIONS. 7 

let Luke tell us. He says that Adam was a son of God, 
(Luke 3:38). Then Cain was the son of God, being the 
son of Adam. He went to the land of Nod and married a 
daughter of men. Here be built a city. How could he 
build a city by himself? And if he could build a city, 
pray, what use could he make of it? We read that Cain 
was afraid that somebody would kill him and God was 
afraid that somebody would kill Cain, and he put a mark 
on Cain, least some finding him should kill him. (Gen. 4: 
14). God said, "Whosoever slayeth Cain vengeance shall 
be taken on him seven-fold." (Gen. 4:15). From this 
statement we learn one of two things: 1st. That God had 
made some other people that he was afraid would kill 
Cain; or 2d, that God had forgotten what he had made, 
and for fear that he had made some other people and had 
forgotten all about them, he put a mark on Cain to keep 
them (somebody that God had forgotten all about) from 
killing him. This I do not believe, as it would make God 
very ignorant of his works. There has always been two 
classes of people on the earth—the sons of God and the 
sons of men. Adam, Cain and Abel were all sons of God. 
Cain and Abel both make an offering to God and called 
on the name of God. God had respect for Abel's offering, 
and for Cain and his offering he had no respect. This 
made Cain very wroth and he slew his brother. (Gen; 4:4- 
5-8). Here we learn when the sons of God called upon 
the name of God. It was before Cain was driven out from 
the presence of the Lord. 

Seth is Adam's third son, which was born after Cain 
killed Abel, for we hear Eve say, "For God hath appointed 
me another seed instead of Abel, whom Cain slew." Gen. 
4:25. From this we learn that Seth was born after Abel's 
death. Now, Seth has a son aud calls his name Enos. 
•'Then (at that time) began men to call on the name of the 
Lord." (Gen. 4-26). You will see from this statement 
that the sons of God called upon the name of the Lord 
before Seth was born and men began to call upon the name 
of the Lord after Seth's first son was born. The serpent 
that beguiled Eve was called beast of the field which 



THE TWO iCREATIQNS. 



the Lord had made. He was one of the first creation (of 
the sons of men). Second Peter, 2:12, says men are beast), 
or at least, he calls some men beast. This beast or ser- 
pent could talk* and did talk. He said unto the woman, 
"Yea, hath God said ye shall not eat of every tree of the 
garden." (Gen. 3:1). If this beast or serpent could talk, 
why is it that beast do not talk to-day? This beast was a 
man that knew both the good and the evil. Some say 
that the serpent was the old Devil. If he was the old boy 
he had to eat dust all the days of his life. Then he had 
a, life, and when he died quit two things—eating dust and 
crawling on his belly. But we will see what God has to 
say about him, after telling him that he should crawl 
upon his belly and eat dust. God says, "And I will put 
enmity between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy 
head and thou shalt bruise his heel." (Gen. 3:15). If 
this serpent was the Devil he had to have a wife to have 
seed for the seed of the woman to bruise the head of. 
Where in the Bible do we read of a Mrs. Devil? It was 
not the head of the serpent that the seed of the woman was 
to bruise, but it was the seed of the serpent whose head 
was to l?e bruised. . . ; , ! > 

The white race has bruised the head of the black 
races for ages past. They are the sons of men and not 
the sons of God, and never will be. Dear reader, do not 
misjudge me a,bout the black races, but read this took 
through and see if the colored races are not blessed by 
the gospel of Christ at the proper time and place. The 
children of this world (sons of men) are wiser in their 
generation, (creation) than the children of the light (sons 
of God) are in their creation. The sons of God (Adam) 
only know the good, but the sons of men (colored races) 
know r both good and evil. The serpent knew both good 
and evil. He knew that it was wrong to advise Eve to 
eat of the tree that God had bade her not to eat of. He 
also knew it was right to obey God. Why did the ser- 
pent seek Adam's fall? There is a reason why. The 
serpent was made, a little lower than Adam. This we will 
see whe# we ^examine the types. It is taught that the 



THE TWO CREATIONS. . 9 

black the brown the red and the yellow races all spring 
from the white race. If they did the old world never had 
a colored man or woman in it. Why? Because Noah 
and his three sons were all the men that were saver] in the 
ark. It is taught that Ham means black, and because 
the name Ham means black, Ham was therefore black. If 
he was black his wife had to be black also, or their chil- 
dren would only be half-breeds, and in the tenth genera- 
tion from Ham you could not discover the black blood 
with the most powerful telescope ever made. Besides, 
we have five races on the earth- — the Caucasion white 
race, the Mongolian yellow race, the Indian red race, the 
Ethiopian black race and the Malay brown race. Noah 
only had three sons; so you see we fall short of two races 
in the sons of Noah. If his sons represented colors, this 
will never do. We must hunt up something better than 
this. We read in Gen. 6, "Noah was a just man and per- 
fect in his generation (creation). If Noah and his sons 
were perfect in their creation, then they were all one 
color. We read in Gen. 6 why God sent the flood on the 
earth. It was because the sons of God saw the daugh 
ters of men, that they were fair and took them wives. 
Here we see that the sons of God, Adam's race, had mar- 
ried the daughters of men (colored races), "and God looked 
upon the earth and behold it was corrupt, for all flesh had 
corrupted his way upon the earth." Gen. 6:12. 

Here God tells us why he brought the flood. It was 
because the sons of God had married the daughters of men. 
Noah and his family were all the pare blood of Adam's 
family left. (Gen. 6:9). God never intended for the sons 
of God (Adam's race) to marry the daughters of man, but 
we find that they did and some of Adam's sons are still 
marrying the daughters of men (colored races). God 
blessed the first creation (colored races) and told them to 
multiply. This was his will for them to multiply. Adam 
and Eve, God never told to multiply, and if Adam and 
Eve had remained in the garden and had not eat of the 
tree of knowledge of good and evil they never would have 
multiplied. God tells Eve as a curse that she shall bring 



10 THE TWO CREATIONS. 

forth children. God said that the seed of the womafr 
should bruise the Lead of the seed of the serpent. We 
find that the second man Adam (Christ) is the seed of the 
woman Mary, and not the seed of Joseph. Christ is the 
seed that is to bruise the seed of the serpent's head. When 
will he do this? When he comes back to our earth. Then 
he is to bruise the heads of many kingdoms. More about 
this further on. 

Luke runs the line of succession back to Adam to 
prove that Christ was of Adam's race. If there were but 
one man and woman created at the first, why does Luke 
run the line of Adam to th^ beginning to prove that Christ 
is of Adam's race? If there was but one man and woman 
created at the first, Christ would have to be of Adam's 
race. This is proof that there were other races created 
besides Adam's race. This we know, or God would not 
have run the genealogy of Christ back to Adam to prove 
that he was of Adam's race. 



CHAPTER II. 

HOW DID THE COLORED RACES CROSS THE ELOOD. 

We have shown by the Bible that there were other 
races created on the earth besides Adam's race. The 
question is how did the the colored races cross the flood I 
This question I will now undertake to answer by the Bi- 
ble. "But," says one, "they did not go into the ark, and 
as there was no other means to save them they were lost 
in the flood." Here I would say that the Bible tells us 
that Cain was driven from the face of the earth and he 
went to the land of Nod, (Gen. 4:14.) The Bible also tells 
us that the flood was on all the face of the earth (Gen. 7:4.) 
Prom these two statements we see that the land of Nod 
is not on the face of the earth; and as ii was 
not on the face of the eaith the flood did not cover it. 
The face of the earth is the center of the earth. The face 
of a man is not his foot and no part of it. I have only 
called the reader's mind to these two statements of the Bi- 
ble. I believe that the colored races went into the ark. The 



THE TWO CREATIONS. 11 

colored races did go into the ark and was saved by the 
ark. "Well," says one, "if they did they had no soul; as 
there were but eight souls saved by the ark" (1 Peter 3:20) 
I say that they had as much soul as Noah and his family 
had. The little word "soul" is the key to the mystery, 
and reveals the whole truth about the races of men on 
the earth. 

In Gen. 2:7 we read "God made man of the dust of 
the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of 
life, and man become a living soul" This is the second 
creation of man. Gen. 1:27 tells us of the first creation 
and does not call them living souls. Why? Because*they 
were made to die. They were to eat of the herbs of the 
field, which has life in a measure in it; eating the herbs 
of the field would give them life for a while The second 
creation was called a living soul; or made a liv- 
ing soul. Why? Because he was to eat of the 
tree of life forever, and thus live on forever. 
When Adam sinned God drove him from the tree of life; 
and as a curse told him that he should eat of the herb of 
the field, which only had lite in a measure in it. You see 
from this how Adam become to eat the herb of the field 
like the first creation. We hear God say "man has he- 
come as one of us to know good and evil, least he put 
forth his hand and take also of the tree of life and eat 
and live forever," (Gen. 3:22.) From this statement we 
see that Adam could have put forth his hand and taken of 
the tree of life and eat and lived forever in his sinful 
state. This is why God sent him forth from the garden 
to till the ground from whence he was taken. "So he 
drove out the man and he placed at the east of the gar- 
den of Eden cherubims and a flaming sword, which turned 
every way, to keep the way of the tree of life," (Gen. 3:24.) 
Right here the son of God (Adam) lost the tree of life. It 
has been lost to Adam's sons ever since. 

In^the second Adam (Christ) we are to regain the tree 
of life lost in the first Adam. More about this farther on. 
The words "living soul is the key to the mystery; Abra- 
ham was born 352 years after the flood, and just two 



12 THE TWO CREATIONS. 

years after Noah's death. Abraham was 75 years old 
when he met Melchizedek. This was just 427 years after 
the flood. At this time Abraham had 318 armed men in 
his house. They were not his kin, or at least Abrahafn 
says so, when he made his old servant that ruled over all 
that he had, swear unto him not to take his son Isaac a 
wife of the Canaanites among whom I dwell. But thou 
shalt go unto my country and to my kindred and take a 
wife unto my i<on," (Gen. 24:2 3 4.) Here we learn that 
.Abraham's servants and the Canaanites were not Abra- 
ham's kinfolks. This is only 462 years after the flood. 
Reader, look in Gen. 14 chap., and see how many people 
there were on the earth only 462 years after the flood. 
You will find that there were more than thirty nations at 
this time. Where did they come from so quick after the 
ilood? Lot had two daughters left him after Sodom 
was destroyed. When Lot left Sodom he went to a Utile 
vity called Zoar. But Lot was afraid to stay in Zoar, 
^and he went up out of Zoar and dwelt in the mountains. 
Here his two daughters made Lot drunk and lay with him, 
u For" they said, u there is not a man in the earth to come 
into us after thee of all the earth. Come, let us make our 
father drink wine and we will He with him that we may 
preserve seed of our father,"(Gen. 18:31-32.) These women 
thought that all of their kind were destroyed in Sodom. 
Why were the people of Noah not like their father? Be- 
cause Lot was a son of God, and the people of Zoar was 
not. But were the sons of men colored races? This was 
about 452 years after the flood. 

^We now return to where Abraham metMelchizedek.as 
we have shown that it was only 427 years after the 
flood, and at that time Abraham had 318 armed men in 
his house, called servants. This was 215 years before 
Abraham's family goes down into Egypt and 645 years 
before the law given at Horeb. If Abraham had 318 
armed men in his house 25 years before Isaac was born 
a,nd about 75 years before Jacob was born, this makes 75 
years from the time that Melchizedek met Abraham until 
Jacob was born, and we still have 140 years from Jacob's 



TflE TWO CREATIONS. 1 *3>; 

birth until they went into Egypt. In the 215 years Abr$ ,--.. 
ham's servants would multiply to a mighty host. Jacob 
w#s born 140 years before they went into Egypt, and i,n 
that 140 years Jacob multiplied to 70 souls. If Jacob- 
would multiply to 70 souls in 140 years, what would 31S 
men multiply in 215 years? You know that they would 
make a mighty host. When Jacob and his family went 
down into Egypt not one word is said about their servants 
going with them to Egypt. The question is, did they go 
with Jacob into Egypt? They did go into Egypt, but says 
one, if they did they had no souls, as the Bible sa^ys 70 
souls went down into Egypt. I told you in the first chap- 
ter of this little book that the words living soul was the 
key to the mystery of the races. We read that as soon 
as they came up out of Egypt they had their servants; 
for a mighty multitude come up with them. They could 
not have come up out of Egj^ptif they were not there. Can 
it be s^id of a man that he came out of the bouse unless 
he was in the house to come out of? So 3 T ou see if Jacob's 
servants came out of Egypt they had to b^ there. 

The 5th chapter of Genesis says this is the book gen- 
eration of Adam's family, and does not, say anything 
about other races, except where they come in contact 
with the history of Adam's race. This is why it is said 
that eight souls was saved by water. Thei^\ were other 
races in the ark, but they are not called souls. The word 
soul tells who they are; giving the history of. As in the 
case of going down into Egypt, 70 souls, Jacob's family, 
went down into Egypt; but we know that their servants 
went down also but were not called souls; why? Because 
the Bible is not giving their history, but the history of 
Adam's family. The first creation is not called living 
souls; it is the second creation that was called living 
souls, as they were to eat of the tree of life and live for- 
ever. The first creation were to eat the herb of the field 
and not, the tree of life. More about this farther on. 

Before the war when our neighbors would make a din- 
ner they would call their rich neighbors to thedinner.They 
wpuld come and have a gpod time. The next day our 



14 THE TWO CREATIONS 

county paper would tell about the dinner and tell all about 
who were there with their families, but would not say one 
word about tbe servants that were there to wait on their 
masters and families. Why did he not tell about the ser- 
vants that were there? Was it because they were not 
there? You know that thev were there, but of the fami- 
lies called to dinner they were no part of. This is just how 
it is in the Bible. The servants are not mentioned only 
where they come in contact with the sons of God. They 
were in the ark, but not called souls. They went down 
into Egypt, but not called souls. 



CHAPTER III 



ADAM WAS "LUCIFER." 



It is taught by many great and good men that Lucifer 
is the Devil, and hundreds of people believe that he is. 
I will now undertake to show by the Bible that Lucifer 
was not the Devil, but Adam, before his fall. To do this 
we will have to reason a little. God has said "come and 
let us reason together." God respects man's reason and 
says come, we will reason together. Then, dear reader, 
let's do what God has invited us to do; to reason with 
him. 

Isaiah, 14th chapter tells about Lucifer and calls him 
"son of the morning;" that is, son of creation. If Lucifer 
was the Devil he had to fall before Adam's fall; as he had 
to beguile Eve before she would eat of the tree God had 
told her not to eat of. Isaiah tells us that Lucifer weak- 
ened the nations before his fall, (Is. 14:12.) What na- 
tions did Lucifer weaken? We have been taught that 
there was but one man and woman before the fall, and as 
Lucifer had to fall before Adam could fall, what nations 
did he weaken? You see at once that you will have to 
give up the idea of only one man and woman being cre- 
ated or give up what you have been taught about Lucifer 
being the devil. We will now notice Isaiah 14:8-16. " Yea 
the fir tree rejoices at thee and the cedars of Lebanon 
saying sinee thou art laid down no fellow has come up 



THE TWO CREATIONS. 15 

against us. Hell from beneath is moved for thee to meet 
thee at thy coming. Itstirrethup the dead for thee; it 
hiath raised up from their thrones all the kings of the na- 
tions. 

REMARKS. 

If this was Lucifer as he is claimed, then who 
were these kings Lucifer raises from their thrones? Who 
were the nations that these kings ruled over? as they all 
had thrones before Lucifer raised them from their thrones. 
[Note these kings as we will have need for them farther 
on; also note the trees as we will also have need for them 
farther on.] "all they shall speak and say unto thee, art 
thou also become weak as we; art thou become like 
unto us." 

REMARKS. 

Who were those talking to Lucifer and asking him 
"art thou become weak as we, art thou become like unto 
us?' These questions must be settled by the Bible. If 
you claim that Lucifer was the Devil you will have to tell 
who these kings were that were talking to him; and if 
you claim that Lucifer was Adam, you will have to tell 
who these kings were. So you see you cannot do it with- 
out claiming as I do — that there were two creations of 
man upon the earth. "Thy pomp is brought down to the 
grave and the noise of thy riles the worm is spread under 
thee and worms cover thee. How art thou fallen from 
heaven, Lucifer! son of the morning; how art thou cut 
down to the ground which didst weaken the nations!" 

REMARKS. 

What nations did Lucifer weaken? As you know 
that if Lucifer was the Devil, he had to fall before he 
could deceive Adam. You see that Lucifer weakened 
the nations before his fall. Adam and Eve would only 
be one nation and a very small one at that. But we read 
that Lucifer weakened the nations; not one nation but 
nations. "For thou hast said in thine heart I will ascend 
into heaven; I will exalt my throne above the stars of 
God." 



16 ; THEi TWO CREATIONS 



REMARKS, 



* rHere we l£arn *hat Lucifer had a throne. If he did ? 
he'had to have subjects arid territory. Who were his sub- 
jects and what his territory? We will answer these ques- 
tions farther on. "I will seat also upon the mount of the 
congregations in the side of the north; I will ascend above 
the heights of the clouds; [ will be like the Most High.'^ 

[l ' ■' '"' A '[ '••;. v ; : ' ' REMARKS. . 

T Who did this very, riling? Adam and Eve. They 
trj.ed to become like Go4 and they made a failure. The 
serpent told Eve that if she would eat of the tree of good 
and evil that she would be like God. Eve believed the 
serpent and ate of the tree of good and evil. Why did 
she eat of the fruit? To become like God. 

We see that Lucifer said U I will be like the Most 
Higti," blithe made a failure also and got an awful fall. 

I . "Yet t^iou shalt be brought down to hell to the side 
of , the pit; they that see thee shall narrowly look upon 
thee and consider thee; saying 'is this the man that made 
the earth tremble that did shake kingdoms/'. 

i« •••!< ).: '■ - ■<■■ d ' REMARKS. 

Here we learn that Lucifer was a man. "Is this the 
matt" that made the earth to tremble, that did shake king- 
doms. The Devil never was a man and never will be; but 
Lticifer was a man, or the Bible is wrong. If a man, who 
could he be but Adam? As Adam was a son of the morn- 
ing and did the very thing that Lucifer did, tried to be- 
come like the Most High. In three things Lucifer is 
like Adam. 1st. Lucifer was the son of the morning. 
Adam was the son of the morning. 2nd. Lucifer tried to 
become like the Most High. Adam tried to become like 
the Most High. 3d. Lucifer was cast out. Adam was 
cast out. Lucifer could noc be the Devil unless there 
were more than one man and woman on the earth before 
his fall; as we see that he did shake kingdoms. If Luci- 
fer shook kingdoms, there had to be kingdoms to shake 
before he could shake them. If you say that Lucifer was- 



THE TWO CREATIONS. 17 

the Devil, then Adam was one of the kings of the king- 
doms that Lucifer made to shake. Then Adam was a 
king beyond doubt; and if a king he had subjects and ter- 
ritory. Then away goes the o^e man doctrine. Reader, 
do you believe that the black negro spring from the white 
man? If you do, you bejieve it without proof. But, says 
one, the Bible says "out of one blood has he (God) made 
all nations." This is proof that the negro sprang from 
Adam. We will see if it is proof that the negro sprang 
from Adam. God tells us that the blood is the life of 
man; of the blood is the life of man and it is as 
God, who knows all things says that it ' is, 
then we will change the word for the meaning and we 
read : out of one life hath God made all nations. All life 
is of God and comes from God. Again, God tells us that 
he made man out of the dust of the ground. All the man 
was made out of the dust except his spirit (breath). Then 
his blood was made of the dust of the ground. Then we 
will read : out of one dust has he (God) made all nations. 
How will this do? You see that your proof is on my 
side of the question, and not on yours. Will you say that 
u Eve is the mother of all living" and offer this as proof 
that the negro sprang from our mother. Eve. We will 
look at this proof for a while and see it it proves what 
you think it does. "Eve is the mother of all living." All 
living is a big word. I ask is Eve the mother of the beasts 
of the iield and all the fowls of the air and all the vege- 
table kingdom? for they all have life and are a part of 
all living. You say no; Eve is only the mother of all peo- 
ple, and not of beasts and fowls. This is your putting a 
construction on God's word. Now I have as much 
right as you have to put a construction on God's 
word; yet I will look at your construction and 
see if it is a good one. You say all living means 
all people. God's word tells us that the ants are a 
little people (Prov. 38:25.) Then old mother Eve is the 
mother of the ants, and the ants must have the gospel 
preached to them. Why? Because they are people and 
are the offsprings of Adam and Eve, and has as much 



18 THE TWO CREATIONS. 

right to have the gospel preached to them as we do. So 
you see that it will not do to explain God's word toy tell- 
ing the people what it means. It must mean jusf what 
it says: "Eve is the mother of all living." Means just 
what it says? Who is it talking about, the race of Adam? 
Genesis, 5th chapter, tells us that the Bible is the history 
of Adam, Eve was the wife of Adam, and was the mother 
of all the living of Adam's family. I cannot see how a man 
can go out of Adam's race and claim one promise of God 
for other races. Adam was a king and all of his children 
are of a royal line, and one day will be reinstated in their 
kingdom and rule the nations, their father, Adam, once 
ruled. I will close this chapter with the Two Adams. 



THE TWO ADAMS. 

Adam the first was made oat of dust, 
And for a while in God he trusts ; 
But alas! he thought he would be great, 
And then he lost his first estate. 

Now from his happy home he goes, 
To meet his troubles and his woes. 
The first trouble that pierced his heart, 
Was when from Abel he had to part. 
The next trouble that grieved him sore, 
Was when he knew his Cain no more ; 
And now he begins to see 
The effect of that dreadful tree. 

He now remembers his happy home 

Where he had never known a grown, 

Where he had never shed a tear, 

Nor felt the pain he feels here. 

He was the Lucifer of old, 

In the Bible we are told, 

Where the covering was the light, 

And when for him there was no night. 

He was perfect in his day, 

Before he left to go astray. 

He was the anointed stone, 

And the light around him shone. 



THE TWO CREATIONS. 19 

He was then the Great King, 
And before him the nations sang, 
But alas ! he lost his kingly state, 
And is driven out to meet his fate, 

Death now begins his awful reign. 
And all is made to feel his pain. 
He now is fully enthroned, 
And Adam's family is made to groan. 

He reigns over all of Adam's race, 
And from none he hides his face ; 
He has no respect for man, 
And before him none can stand. 

His prison house is very great, 
Where all have had to meet their fate. 
There they are bound until the day 
That Christ shall bid them come away. 

The second Adam now appears 
And bids us all to dry our tears. 
He says he'll bring back from the dust 
Every one that in him trust. 

Death now begins to lay his plans 
To take Immanuel from the land, 
And at last we hear the cry, 
The second Adam has to die. 

To Death's prison he has to go, 
There to meet his dreadful foe. 
These mighty Kings meet face to face 
In that dark and awful place. 

For masterage they now contend 

In that dark and doleful land. 

All is silent for a while 

And the wicked still revile. 

But at last we hear the shout, 

Victorious Immanuel is out. 

Back to our earth he comes again, 

Not to die but here to reign. 

And with him comes a mighty host 

Who's long been absent from their post, 

He now with them ascends on high 

Where they will live and never die. 



20 THE TWO CREATIONS. 

Where he is seated on God's throne 
Never more to make a groan, 
And now we hear the angels say, 
Victorious Immanuel has gained the day. 

Upon God's throne he will remain 
Until the wicked one is slain. 
Then to our earth he'll come again 
To raise the ones that Death has slain. 

From their prison they will arise 
To meet their Saviour in the skies, 
Then all of every race shall see 
The Saviour who died on the tree. 

Now arrayed in glory bright, 
Shedding forth its perfect light, 
Seated upon a dazzling throne, 
That God has given for his own.

CHAPTER IV. 

THE KING OF TYRUS WAS ADAM. 

In the 28th chapter of Ezek. we have lamentation 
upon the king of Tyrus. Some have thought that this king 
of Tyrus was nothing more than some great king who has 
lived since Adam's fall. There may have been many 
great kings called the king of Tyrus on the earth since 
Adam's fall, but this king of Tyrus was either Adam, or 
the serpent, one or the other, as we will see in looking at 
the testimony. (Ezek 28:13). u Thou hast been in Eden 
the garden of God." 

REMARKS. 

Who had been in Eden the garden of God? This king 
of Tyrus we read of. but three ever being in the garden of 
Eden — Adam and Eve and the serpent. Then this king 
of Tyrus had to be either Adam or the serpent, one or the 
other, as they are the only ones who was ever in the gar- 
den of Eden. Since Adam's fall no man has ever been in 
the garden of Eden. Then I conclude that Adam was the 



THE TWO CREATIONS. 



21 



Tdngof Tyrus. The king of Tyrus could not have been 
the serpent, from the fact that the serpent was a beast of 
the field and received a curse from God to go on his belly 
all the days of his life. But we will find other proof yet 
that the serpent could not have been the king of Tyrus. 
(Ezek. 28:13). "Every precious stone was thy covering — 
the sardius, the topaz, the diamond, the beryl, the oynx, 
the jasper, the sapphire, the emerald, the carbuncle and 
gold, the workmanship of the tablets and of thy pipes 
was prepared in thee in the day that thou wast created.'' 
Here we learn that this king of Tyrus was created. Then 
this king was not born of woman, as kings are now. The 
king Jesus Christ had to be born of woman as all who 
read the Bible know. This king of Tyrus is like Adam 
in this point. Adam was created and not born of woman. 
(Gen. 28:14-15). "Thou art the anointed cherub (king or 
holy) that covereth, and I have set thee so. Thou wast 
upon the holy mountain of God. Thou hast walked up 
and down in the midst of the stones of fire. Thou wast 
perfect in thy ways from the days that thou wast created 
till iniquity was found in thee." 

REMARKS. 

This king of Tyrus is like Adam at this point. Adam 
was also perfect from the day he was created until in- 
iquity was found in him. (Gen. 28:16). "By the multi- 
tude of thy merchandise they have filled the midst of 
thee with violence and thou hast sinned; therefore, I will 
cast thee as profane out of the mountain of God, and I 
will destroy thee, O, covering cherub, from the midst of 
the stones of fire." 

REMARKS. 

Here we learn that the king of Tyrus sinned and God 
says I will cast thee as profane out of the mountains of 
God. Not only cast him out, but God says I will destroy 
thee, O covering cherub. Why does God destroy this 
king? It is because he had sinned. This king is like 
-Adam in this point. Adam was cast out of the garden of 



22 THE TWO CREATIONS. 

Eden because he sinned, and Adam was destroyed in 
death. (Gen. 28:17). "Thine heart was lifted up because 
of thy beauty." Note this word beauty, as we wil] have 
use for it after awhile. "Thou hast corrupted thy wisdom 
by reason of thy brightness. I will cast thee to the ground. 
I will lay thee before kings, that they may behold thee. " 
Here we find the kings that we found in the fall of Lu- 
cifer- Note these Icings well, as they will come in use 
when we examine the types. We find that this king of 
Tyrus was to be layed before kings; not only to be layed 
before kings, but those kings were to behold him after his 
fall. This king of Tyrus, we have seen, had to be either 
Adam or the serpent, as they are the only ones that we 
read of being in Eden. If the king of Tyrus was the ser- 
pent, then there were kings on the earth when he was in 
the garden of Eden. Why so? Because he is to be laid 
before kings when he is cast out. He could not be laid be- 
fore nothing, could he? But these kings were to behold 
him after his fall. How could nothing be said to behold 
a king? You know that it could not. If the king of Ty- 
rus was Adam, then there had to be kings on the earth at 
his fall to behold him and for Adam to be laid before. 
You see that there had to be more than one man created 
if you make the king of Tyrus either the serpent or 
Adam, and we know that he was one or the other. Then 
we ask the question, who were these kings on the earth at 
Adam's fall? They were the sons of men. Adam was 
their king. Adam was a king of kings, and had to be. To 
agree with the antitype, Christ, who is king of kings and 
Lord of Lords. (Ezek. 28:19). U A11 they that know thee 
among the people shall be astonished at the. Thou shalt 
be a terror and never shall thou be any more. Here we- 
find that there were people on the earth who knew this 
king of Tyrus before his fall. Those people are astonished 
at his fall. Who were they? Reader, remember that this 
king of Tyrus was in Eden, the garden of God, before his 
fall, and those people knew him before his fall. Then we 
are led to believe from Bible evidence that there were 
more than one man created before the fall of Adam. We? 



THE TWO CREATIONS. 23 

will conclude, this chapter with a notice of the points of 
the king of Tyrus with Adam: 

1st. We find that this king of Tyrus was in the gar- 
den of God. Adam was in the garden of God. 

2J. The king of Tyrus was created.- Adam was 
created. 

3d. We find that the king of Tyrus was perfect in his 
ways until iniquity was found in him. Adam was perfect 
in his ways until iniquity was found in him. 

4th. The king of Tyrus sinned and was destroyed. 
Adam sinned and was destroyed in death. 



CHAPTER V. 

THE ASSYRIAN CEDAR WAS ADAM BEFORE HIS FALL. 

When we read of the trees in the garden of Eden, 
in Gen. 2 , Is. 14. and Ezk. 31 chapters, we are caused to 
think that some of the trees were more than trees. The 
tree of knowledge of good and evil we will look at first, 
and see if it was not more than a tree. It had knowledge 
of both good and evil. How could a tree have knowledge 
of good and evil? We all know that all knowledge is to 
"be learned. AH the knowledge that a man has or ever 
will have he must learn. All knowledge comes through 
one or more of the five senses; seeing, hearing, tasting, 
smelling and feeling. Without these five organs there can 
be no knowledge. Then, reader, if the tree had Knowl- 
edge it had to have organism. God's word says that it 
had knowledge; if it bad an organism it was a man. The 
tree knew two things: 1st. It knew the good or had knowl- 
edge of good, which is the same thing. 2nd. It knew evil 
or had knowledge of evil which is the same as knowing. 
The tree is like the children of this world (sons of men,) 
Adam (son of God) called a tree in Ezk. 31st chapter, 
only knew the good. But, says one, how could Eve eat 
the fruit of the tree if it was man? Paul tells the saints 
to "eat strong meat." What did Paul mean but to eat 
knowledge, if the saints could and did eat knowledge? 
Why could not Eve eat knowledge too? She could and did 



24 THE TWO CREATIONS. 

eat knowledge after she and Adam had eaten of the tree 
of knowledge of good and evil. God walks in the garden 
in the cool of the day and Adam and his wife hide them- 
selves among the trees of the garden (Gen. 3:8.) [Note 
that Adam and his wife hide among the trees of the gar- 
den. We will see more about these trees farther on.] 
"And the Lord God called unto Adam and said unto 
him, 'where art thou?" and he (Adam) said, 'I heard thy 
voice in the garden and I was afraid; because I was naked, 
and I hid myself." And he said "who told thee that 
thou wast naked?" (Gen. 3:9-10 11.) Here God asks Adam 
a question: "who told thee that thou wast naked^" You 
see from this question that some one told Adam that he 
was naked. Adam had eaten knowledge. There are but 
five ways to eat knowledge — by hearing, by seeing, by 
by tasting, by smelling and by feeling. Adam and Eve 
had eaten knowledge and then they learned that they were 
naked. They did not know this before and when they 
learned that they were naked they were ashamed. Why 
were they ashamed? Because they now knew evil as well 
as good. I believe that this tree of knowledge of good 
and evil was the serpent, but says one, it could not be 
the serpent, as the serpent speaks of the tree in the third 
person. John and Paul both speak of themselves in the 
third person. Why could not the serpent do the same 
thing. In Ezk. 31:2 the prophet speaks unto Pharoah 
and tells who he was like in thy greatness. 

We will now begin with Ezk. 31:3, "Behold the As- 
syrians was a cedar in Lebanon with fair branches and 
with a shadowing shroud and of an high stature; and 
his top was among the thick boughs. The waters (peo- 
ple) made him great, the deep sit him up on high with 
her rivers running round about his plants and sent out 
her little rivers unto all the trees of the field. Therefore 
his height was exalted above all the trees of the field." 
[These trees were men, as we will see before we are 
through with this chapter.] u And his boughs were mul- 
tiplied and his branches become long because of the mul- 
titude of the waters when he shot forth. Ail the fowls 



THE TWO CREATIONS. 25 

of heaven made nests in his boughs and under his branches 
did all the beasts of the field bring forth their young, and 
under his shadow dwelt all great nations." We know 
that this cedar could not be a common tree, as great na- 
tions dwelt under its shadow. Some have claimed that 
this tree represented some great king who lived since 
Adam's fall; but this will not do, as we find that this 
tree was in Ed^n, the garden of God. (Ezk. 31:8.) "Thus 
was he fair in his greatness in the length of his branch- 
es, for his root was by the great waters. The cedars in the 
garden of God could not hide him." Here we learn that 
this tree was in the garden of God. This tree was Adam. 
This fact I will now undertake to prove. Adam tried to 
hide from God among the trees of the garden, but he 
could not hide from God. Ezk. 31:8. says that the trees in 
the garden of God could not hide him. Why not? Be- 
cause there was no t^ee in the garden of God like him in 
his beauty. "The fir trees were not like his boughs and 
the chestnut trees were not his branches nor any tree in 
the garden of God was like unto him in a his beauty." 

I said that I would notice the trees again that Adam 
tried to hide amongst. You see why he could not hide 
himself? because there were no trees in the garden of 
God like him in his beauty. When a man of today vio- 
lates law he tries to hide amongst men. This is just what 
Adam did; he had violated God's law and tried to hide 
amongst the trees (men) of the garden, but could not hide, 
as none of the trees in the garden were like him. "I 
have made him fair by the multitude of his branches, so 
that all the trees (men) of Eden that were in the garden 
of God envied him." (Ezk. 31:9.) Here we learn that these 
trees were in Eden, the garden of god. Then this As- 
syrian cedar or king that Pharoah was like in his great- 
ness, was either Adam or the seipent; as they are the 
only two that were in Eden. If this tree was the ser- 
pent, then the serpent was greater than Adam; also he 
was more perfect in his beauty than Adam. Why? Be- 
cause none of the trees in Eden wes like him in his beauty. 
Then the old serpent is more perfect in his beauty than 



26 THE TWO CREATIONS. 

God himself. Why? Because Adam was made in the 
image and likeness of God. (Gen. 1:26.) As we see that 
this cedar could not be the serpent, then it uust have 
been Adam before his fall, as Adam was more beautiful 
than any tree in Eden the garden of God; so much so 
that all the trees of Eden that were in the garden of God 
envied him." (Ezk. 31:9.) Here we learn that these trees 
envied him. How could a tree envy a tree? You know 
that they could not; then I conclude that these trees were 
men. To envy there must be a mind; to be a mind, there 
must be an organization. Then these trees had an organ- 
ization; and if they did, they were men. (Ezk. 31:10.)— 
"Therefore, thus saith the Lord God, because thou hast 
lifted up thyself in height and he hath shot up his top 
among the thick boughs and his heart is lifted up in his 
height." Adam's heart was lifted up and he tried to be- 
come like God. For we all know that he ate of the tree 
of knowledge of good and evil to become like God, or at 
least the serpent told them that to eat of the fruit of the 
tree they would be like God. This is why they ate of the 
tree to become like God, and for doing this we hear God 
say "I have therefore delivered him into the hand of 
the mighty one of the heathen." (Ezk. 31:11.) Who was 
this mighty one of the heathen that Adam was to be de- 
livered into the hands of? If there were only Adam and 
Eve on the earth before or at the time of their fall, it 
must have been the colored laces, called sons of men. 
They are the ones that Cain was afraid would kill him. 
They are the ones that God was afraid would kill Cain,, 
and put a mark on him to keep them from killing him. 
After God delivered Adam into the hand of the mighty 
one of the heathen, He says, "he shall surely 
deal with him, I have driven him out for his wick- 
edness." (Ezk. 31:11.) Adam was driven out of 
the garden for his wickedness, and the only one 
we have read of in the Bible who was cast out of 
the garden of Eden for his wickedness or sin. This is 
more proof that this tree, Assyrian cedar was Adam be- 
fore his fall. Ezk. 31:12 — u And strangers the terrible 



THE TWO CREATIONS. 27 

of the nations have cut him off and left him." Who was 
there? Strangers of the nations. Here we we will notice 
two things; we have seen that this tree was in Eden, the 
garden of God, and we have also seen that it was either 
the serpent or Adam. If the serpent, who were these 
strangers; also what nations were these on the earth be- 
fore the serpent fell? It this tree was Adam, who were 
these strangers; also these nations? You see that there 
were on the earth nations before Adam's fall. Ezk. 31:12 
— "And all the people of the earth have gone down from 
his shadow and have left him." Who were these people? 
They all left him. Reader, you know by this time that 
this Assyrian cedan was Adam before his fall; so you 
must see by this time that there were two creations of man 
upon the earth. It is said that all the people who was 
under him left him. How could nothing be said to leave 
him? You know that it could not. Ezk, 31:14— u To the 
end that none of all the trees waters exalt themselves." 
How could trees exalt themselves? You know that a com- 
mon tree could not. Here we learn that these trees were 
men. Ezk. 31:14 — God says that these trees, (nations) 
could not "shoot up their tops among the thick boughs^ 
neither their trees." That is, their children could gain 
the seat that the Assyrian cedar had before his fall. None 
of their children could "stand up in their height" (place) 
as this great cedar had stood. Ezk. 31:44 says "for they are 
all delivered unto death." Yousee,that all these trees were 
delivered unto death; they were the first creation, who was 
to eat the herb of the field, which only had life in a meas- 
ure in it. Adam was made a living soul and was to eat of 
the tree of life, and therefore could not die as long as he 
did God's will; but he sinned, and now he is cast down to 
hell (grave) and the sons of men cannot fill the place that 
Adam filled before his fall. Ezk. 31:15— "Thus saith the 
Lord God, in the day when he went down to the grave I 
caused the mourning, I covered the deep for him and I 
caused Lebanon to mourn for him and all the trees of the 
field fainted for him." How could a tree faint? You know 
that they could not. Then they were men who fainted at 



U8 THE TWO CREATIONS. 

the Assyrian cedar's fall. Ezk. 31:16 — "I made the na- 
tion to shake at the sound of his fall when I cast him 
down to hell with them that descends into the pit." Here 
we will notice two thoughts; 1st. God says "I made the 
nations to shake at the sound of his fall when I cast him 
down to hell." Here we learn who these trees were — 
they were the nations of the earth You see from this 
that there were men, and nations at that, when Adam was 
cast out of the garden of Eden. 2d. Adam, (I say Adam 
for I had as well call him by his right name,) was cast 
down to hell (grave) u with them that descend into the 
pit." You see from this statement that Adam was not to 
descend into the pit; he was made to live forever by eat- 
ing of the tree of life, but the colored races was made to 
descend into the pit, and when Adam was cast out of the 
garden of Eden, we hear God say that he is out "with 
them that descends into the pit." Adam now has to die 
like the races. Why? Because he has lost the "tree of 
life." When Adam went down to hell (grave) all the trees 
of Eden went down with him (Ezk. 31:16-17.) Also "they 
that were his arm that dwelt under his shadow in the 
midst of the heathen," (Ezk. 31*17.) Here we learn that 
the heathens were on the earth at the time of Adam's fall. 
This is all that is said about*the Assyrian cedar or king. 
We know that he was in Eden, the garden of God. Some 
say that this king was Pharoah; but he is not. Hear 
God's word: Ezk. 31:18 — "To whom art thou thus like 
in glory and greatness among the trees of Eden." You 
see from this statement that Pharoah was not the Assy- 
rian cedar, but is only compared to him. 

I will close this chapter, believing that I have proven 
by the Word of God that this Assyrian cedar or king 
was Adam before his fall. I here close this chapter with 
some rhymes on the trees of Eden. 



ADAH WAS CHEATED. 

A way back in the beginning 
Before man began sinning, 
We read that God did say 
To Adam of that day: 



THE TWO CREATION6. 

There is a tree of which you. must not eat 
For in the garden it stands to cheat 
You out of happy home 
And carry you down to hell to groan. 

This tree had knowledge, we all know 
For the Bible tells us so ; 
It knew the bad and the good, 
And this fact our God understood. 

God knew that he would mix the two 
And say that either one would do. 
This is why God said to man, 
" Before this tree you must not stand." 

This tree (it surely was a man 
As I will prove to you it I can) 
It had knowledge, you must admit, 
And all the knowledge that we get. 

We have to learn, as you know, 
All our knowledge as we grow. 
All knowledge is of two kinds, 
All good knowledge makes us shine. 

All evil knowledge leads away 
From the God of Love and goes astray. 
This tree both kinds of knowledge had, 
And this is why our God had said 

You must not touch the tree at all, 
For if you do, you'll drink its gall. 
And at last you'll have to groan 
When for your happy home you'll mourn. 

For a while they believed what God had said, 
And then the path of truth they tread 
Until the tree of evil knowledge said: 
"You are too wise thus to be lead, 

If you will listen I will tell 
A thing that God doth know full well, 
How you may reach a higher plane. 
There with God to ever reign. 

First, I will say that you are blind, 
Not in eyesight, but in mind. 
If you will listen I will remove 
All your blindness, as I will prove. 



30 THE TWO CREATIONS. 

Eat of my fruit and you'll be 

Just like God, as you'll see. 

And now this fruit I offer you ; 

Eat of it, and prove my statement true." 

"But," said Eve, "God says we will die 
If we His law would thus defy." 
"You will not die," the tree replies, 
''For it will only open you eyes." 

It is my business to explain to you 
What God meant, and thus be true 
To my calling as I go, 
That one and all may fully know 

That when G-od says a thing will be, 

He meant for it to be explained, you see ; 

But this you now do fully see, 

As you've been eating from the tree. 

God's Word said that you would die, 

But I have proved it to be a lie. 

It only meant that you would be 

Just like God, as now you see. 

This kind of preaching we now hear 
From the preachers everywhere. 
They will tell you how God's Word reads 
And then an explanation plead. 

This is the reason why good men are blind, 
And the true way they cannot find, 
For their preachers have made them blind 
With their explanations of every kind. 

God says all men Christ come to save, 
And will bring all men from the grave. 
The preachers cry "we'll this explain — 
The greatest part shall feel hell's pain." 
God says all men shall be blest 
In the coming day of rest. 
The preachers cry "This will not do, 
For all must burn in hell — except a few!" 

God's Word says you must baptized be, 
If from sins you would be free. 
Then preachers say that you must feel 
That Christ to you has been revealed. 






THE TWO CREATIONS. 31 

Ood's Word says that baptism will save 
As it did Noah, from a watery grave. 
Then preachers say if you will pray 
Christ will save you anyway. 

Good people, these facts are true. 

Although to you they maybe new. 

Then let me plead with all my might 

To leave these false teachers this very night. 

If false teaching led astray 
The wisest of the old world day 
May you not be lead astray 
In a dark and sinful way. 

And at last you'll to God say 
As He did to Adam, that day, 
You and I, made out of the dust; 
But in my word you did not trust. 

This happy nome you now must leave, 
Because my word you did not believe, 
But you believed an explanation ; 
Therefore you now must leave this station. 



CHAPTER VI. 

ADAM A TTPE OF CHRIST. 

We now come to the types, in which we will learn 
that Adam had to be a king. Paul says in Rom. 5:14 that 
Adam was "a figure of him that was to come." Adam 
then was a type of Christ. The type must agree with the 
antitype. If Adam was a type of Christ, Eve had to be a 
type of the church of Christ, which is Christ's bride. 
Adam was made sometime before his bride was made. 
Christ was made or born sometime before his bride (the 
church) was made. Adam is made to sleep a deep sleep, 
and God pierced his side and taken out a rib to make his 
bride. Christ sleeps a deep sleep in death. In his sleep 
his side is pierced and the blood and water flowed to make 
his bride. Paul says that "Christ loved the church and 
gave himself for it, that he might sanctify and cleanse it by 
the washing of water by the word." (Eph. 3:25-26). Christ's 



32 THE TWO CREATIONS. 

bride is now preparing herself for Christ's second coming. 
We find that Adam's bride was to share his glory. We 
find that Christ's bride is to share his glory and be seated 
with him on his throne. (Reve. 3:21). We find that Christ, 
the antitype, died on the cross to sanctify and cleans the 
church, his bride. We find that the type Adam sinned 
against God's laws, which brought death to him. Why 
did Adam sin? Because he loved his wife Eve, and as she 
had eat of the tree of knowledge, of good and evil, she had 
sinned against God's law and lost her first estate and could 
not live in Eden any longer. Adam had to give up his 
wife forever, or sin against God's law and be driven out of 
Eden with his wife. It was love that caused Adam to sin; 
not for God or his law, but love for his wife. It was the 
noblest act of Adam's life. He was willing to give up his 
happy home and meet death to be with his wife. I do not 
commend Adam for sinning against God's law, but I do 
commend him for the love he had for his wife, to be willing 
to give up everything to be with her. All this is a type of 
Christ's love for the church. Christ so loved the church 
that he gave up heaven, his happy home, and all his glory, 
and come to where his church was — suffered, bled and died 
to save it. We see that the type and theantitj^pe agrees 
in love. 

We will now notice the antitype first and the type 
last. The antitype Christ is a king. The type Adam had 
to be a king to agree with the antit) 7 pe. Christ says that 
there was a kingdom prepared from the foundation of the 
world (Matt. 25:34), and I have proved by God's word that 
there was one. The antitj^pe has a kingdom. The type 
Adam had to have a kingdom to agree with the antitype. 
Christ says there was a kingdom from the foundation of 
the world. I believe that it was Adam. I think that I 
have proved this to the reader's mind. If the kingdom 
that was prepared from the foundation of the world was 
not Adam's kingdom, then pray tell us whose kingdom it 
was? The antitype Christ has subjects. The type Adam 
had to have subjects to agree with the antitype. If Adam 
had a kingdom he had subjects. The antitype is a saviour. 



THE TWO CREATIONB. 33 

The type Adam had to be a saviour to agree with the an- 
titype, who is Christ the saviour of the sons of Adam, 
Who was Adam the saviour of? The sons of men? Adam 
did not and could not save the sons of men spiritual, hut 
lie could save them temporal. The sons of men were mads 
to die and not to live forever. Paul says in Rom. 8.19- 
20-21, "For the earnest expectation of the creature (sons 
of men) waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God.*' 
(I have proven that Adam and his sons were the sons of 
God). "For ■the creature (sons of men) was made subject 
to vanity (death) not willingly, but by reason of him 
(God), who hath subjected the same in hope." God has a 
reason then for making the colored races subject to vanity 
(death), "because the creature itself also shall be delivered 
from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty 
of the children of God." You see at once that the creature 
that is to be delivered from the bondage of corruption/is 
not the children of God. If not children, they could not 
be sons of God, as all children of God are His sons and 
daughters. Paul says, Rom. 8:22, "For we know that the 
whole creation groweth and traveleth in pain together 
until now." Here Paul says that the whole creation (that 
is, both sons of God and sons of men) "traveleth in pain 
together until now." What then happened? A part of 
the creation was delivered (sons or God). Hear Paul 
again, Rom. 8:23, "And not only they; who! the colored 
races, "but ourselves also, which have the first fruits of 
the spirit; even we ourselves groan within ourselves wait- 
ing for the adoption, to- wit, the redemption of our body." 
Who has the first fruits? Paul says that the children has 
the first fruits? How did they get the first fruits? The 
gospel of Christ was preached unto his own (sons of God). 
Why to them? That they might be reinstated to their 
father Adam's throne. , You will note that the gospel now 
preached is called the gospel of Christ, or the gospel of 
the kingdom. It is now being preached to the sons of 
Adam only. We will notice this in another chapter of 
this book. t. 

The gospel of Christ gives redemption to our body. 



34 THE TWO CREATIONS. 

That is, we are to be raised from the dead when Christ 
comes back here. The gospel of Christ also makes us 
saviours. "Saviours shall come up on Mount Zion to. 
judge the mount (kingdom) of Eros, and the kingdom 
shall be the Lords. 7 ' (Obadiah 2:21). You see, then, why 
the creature is waiting. It is waiting for the sons of, 
God (saviours) to come or appear, and when they come ; 
they will preach the everlasting gospel unto them (the~ 
creature), and thus deliver them from the bondage of cor-- 
ruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God. 
I told you in the first of this book that the colored races 
would be blessed by the gospel at the proper time and 
place, and we have now found where and when they are 
to be blessed. Some claim that the everlasting gospel is 
now being preached. Bat this will not do, as we know 
that when Christ comes back to our earth that the gospel 
will Cease, having done all that God intended for it to do* 
Then, it is not everlasting, but only age lasting. The 
everlasting gospel comes with the everlasting kingdom of 
Christ, and we know that the everlasting kingdom has 
not come yet. This we will prove in another chapter of 
this book. 

'•I am Alpha and Omega — the first and the last, the 
beginning and the end." (Rev. 1:8). Alpha means first, 
or book of Genesis; Omega means the last or book of 
Revelations. In Alpha we find a new world; in Omega 
we find a new world. In Alpha we find the tree of life; 
in Omega we find the tree of life. In Alpha we find Satan 
destroying Adam's happy home; in Omega we find Satan 
cast out, that he deceive the nations no more. In Alpha 
we find that death enters into Adam's happy home; in 
Omega we find there is to be no more death. In Alpha 
we find the first Adam driven away from the tree of life, 
in Omega we find the second Adam (Christ) opens up a 
way back to the tree of life. "Blessed are they that keep 
the Commandments that they may have a right to the tree 
of life." (Rev. 22:14). It says blessed are they that do 
Ms commandments; not blessed are they that believe his 
commandments, but that do them. You see from this 



THE TWO CREATIONS. 35 

statement that we must do his commandments if we ever 
got back to the tree of lite lost in the first Adam. To do 
his (Christ) commandments we must first know what they 
are. To know what they are, read God's word to learn 
them. Reader, do not take any man's word about what 
is written in the Bible, but read it yourself and then you 
will know for yourself. In Alpha we find that the 
iirst Adam is flesh and blood; in Omega we find that the 
second Adam (Christ) is spirit or immortal. In Alpha 
we find the first Adam brings death to all his seed; in 
Omega we find that the second Adam (Christ) brings life 
to ail his seed. In Alpha we find the first Adam driven 
from his throne; in Omega we find the second Adam 
(Christ) seated on his throne. The bride (church) of 
Christ is to be seated with Christ upon his throne (Rev. 
3:21), and with him she is to rule the nations with a rod 
of iron. (Rev. 2:27). What nations? The colored na- 
tions and all of Adam's race who will not now accept the 
high calling and be made kings and priests with Christ. 
God gave his son, tthe heathens, for persecution (Ps. 2:8- 
9), and the time will come when Christ is to receive his 
inheritance. Christ is now on his father's throne (Rev. 
3:21), but he is to sit upon his own throne in the grand 
age to come. John says, "To him that overcometh, to 
him will I (Christ) grant to sit with me in my throne, even 
as I also overcome and am set down with my father upon 
his throne (Rev. 3:21). Here we are told that Christ is 
on his father's throne, but is to sit down upon his own 
throne. 

When Christ and his bride is seated upon his throne, 
then the promise to Abraham will begin to come to pass." 
In thee and in thy seed shall all the families of the earth 
be blessed;" not cursed, as the most of the preachers 
preach they will be, or the most of them. Christ is Abra- 
ham's seed, and so are the saints; "ye are Abraham's seed 
and heirs according to the promise; "also, "and if ye be 
Chrst's, then are ye Abraham's seed and heirs according 
to the promise." (Gal. 3:29). If we are Christ's, we are 
heirs to the same promises that Christ is heir to, which 



36 THE TWO CREATIONS. 

are. the nations for an inheritance (Ps. 2:8). You see then r 
dear reader, tbat the sons of God is not of the sons of 
men (heathen nations). We hear Christ when he was on 
the earth speaking of the, sons of Adam and the sons of 
men, but say one I have never read one word in the New 
Testament where Christ speaks of the sons of Adam as 
one class of people and the sons of men as another class 
of people. Christ speaks in parables to tbe people. Why 
did he do this? That seeing they should see and not un- 
derstand, and hearing they should hear and not perceive. 
This is why, "For without a parable spake he not unto 
them." Christ speaks of the sheep and the goats. The 
sheep are the sons of Adam, and the goats are the sons of 
men. I know that many good men have taught and are 
still teaching that the sheep are the christians and that 
the goats are the sinners, but this will not do. Why? 
Because you cannot make a goat a sheep, or a sheep a 
goat. A sheep is a sheep, and will always be one; a goat 
is a goat, and will always be. Christ says that when he 
comes back here that he will place the goats on his left 
hand and sheep on his right hand (Matt 25:33). The sheep 
may not be of much use to his Master, but he is a sheep 
all the same. Paul tells us that two classes oi people 
(sheep) will be saved; one class with a reward, and the 
other without a reward. (1 Cor. 1:3-15). Here we learn 
that all the sheep will be saved; one with a reward; that 
is they will be seated with Christ upon his throne to rule 
the nations with a rod of iron (Rev. 3:21), while the other 
class will be saved without a reward. They will stand 
before the throne of Christ and his bride, but will never 
heir the throne of Christ and his bride (Rev. 7:15). The 
goats are on the outside of the city (Rev. 22:15). The 
leaves of the tree of lifn is for their healing. You see 
that goats (sons of men) are not in the promise made to 
Abraham. They are the vessels made into dishonor 
(Rom. 9:17), while the vessels made for honor are the sons 
of Adam (Rom. 9:17). Paul also says (Rom. 9:22 23-24, 
"What if God willing to show his wrath and to make 
his power known, endured with much long suffering the 



THE TWO CREATIONS. 37 

vessels of wrath fitted to destruction." Who did God 
show his wrath on? Pharaoh and his host; (Rom. 9:17). 
Why did God show his wrath on them? "That I might 
show my power in thee, and that my name be declared 
throughout all the earth." This is why? "and that he 
might make known the riches of his glory on the vessels 
of mercy, which he han afore prepared unto glory." Who 
were these vessels of honor? They were the sons of Adam 
as we will now see. When were they prepared unto 
Glory? Afore time. Wlien was that? At the beginning. 
Even us whom he hath called, not of the Jews only, but, 
also of the gentiles. (Rom. 9:24). 

Here Paul tells us that the christians are the vessels 
^fitted afore time unto honor or glory. But says one you 
are trying to prove too much by the vessels. Why so? 
Because Paul says that the Gentiles are also the vessels 
fitted for honor. The word or name Gentile means a sin- 
ner, and all people who sin are Gentiles. Noah's family 
had turned away from God's laws when Christ came to 
our earth. They were the sons of Adam, who was the 
son of God, a part of the Gentiles, Adams sons as well as 
the Jews. Here Paul only tells the Jews that the white 
^Gentiles had a part in Christ as well as tliem. The Jews 
are only one tribe of Israel. Where were the oilier tribes? 
They are, or vvere lost. They had also lost the law of 
Moses, and was called sinners or Gentiles. I will now 
ask a hard question. It is this. When the apostles was 
preaching to the Gentiles we hear them say, "As many 
of the Gentiles as were ordained to eternal life believed, 
why is it that some of the Gentiles were not ordained to 
eternal life?" You see from the Apostles statement that 
they were not. 

I here close this, chapter, hoping that I have proven 
to you by the "Word of God" that Adam was a king and 
a type of Christ in every sense of the word. It must be 
this way, or Christ made a big mistake in stating that 
there was a kingdom prepared at or from the foundation 
of the world. (Matt. 25:44). 



38 THE TWO CREATIONS. 

CHRIST SUFFERS FOR US. 

Jesus suffered much you see, 
For he died upon the tree, 
That you and I might ever be 
From all pain and sin set free. 

For us he laid his glory down, 
And with poor fallen man is found 
Trying to raise them up on high 
That they may live and never die. 

We find him preaching to the poor, 
And pointing them to Canaan shore- 
He was dressed in a common style, 
And upon the poor he cast a smile. 

He gave the blind eyes to see 

The son of God, who set them free. 

He gave the deaf ears to hear 

The sons of God while he was here; 

He gave the dumb a tongue to sing 
Praises to the heavenly king ; 
He healed the sick, the halt the lame r 
And treated all the poor the same* 

He gave the widow back her son, 
And none of the poor did he shun ; 
For doing this the rich did say 
He is not the savior anyway. 

He is not the king we looked to see, 
As with the poor he loves to be; 
He claims to be God's dear son, 
And this is how the poor has won. 
They will try him for his claim „ 
As we are sure he is insane ; 
Before the high Priest he is brought. 
And now for evidence they sought. 

At last two witnesses they find 
To prove Christ guilty they are inclined; 
They state they had heard Christ say 
That their temple he would destroy one day. 

To make him they now begin, 

And every one joins in this sin ; 

A crown of thorns on his head is placed, 
And the blood comes running down his face. 



THE TWO CREATIONS. 39 

To make him now they bow their knee 
To him who died for you and me ; 
Into his face they then did spit, 
To show- the-ir hatred* greater yet. 

He now^is fully scourged, 

And to the cross he is urged ; 

The wicked Romans now begin* 

To drive his hands through with the pine* 

We hear Christ say, I thirst, 
And to his lips the gall is thrust ; 
He looked around to see some pity 
In that great and mighty city. 

We hear them that he must die, 

As our law he did defy ; 

Now let him come down from the cross 

And we, his kinship, wi 11 indorse. 

Others he saved, we hear them eay, 
But upon the cross he must stay ; 
Let him from the cross descend, 
And we will know him God did send. 

And by this act will fully show 
That he is the saviour here below ; 
Then we will own him as our king, 
And of his glory we will sing. 

But at last he bows his head, 
And our saviour he is dead ; 
In the tomb he is laid away, 
Then we hear the wicked say : 

We remember that this imposter eaid 
The third day I will rise from the dead ; 
The call for sixty slavers strong and brave, 
To guard our saviours lonely grave. 
For three days and three nights 
These slayers stand there in their might; 
But just as the last hour passed away, 
And in the east was the gray of day. 

A mighty angel rolls the stone away, 

And the King of death steps out to say 

I have conquered death and the grav*>, 9 

And all who trust in me will save. 



CHAPTER VII. , 

KINODOM TO OOME. 

We will try to show in this chapter what the king- 
dom to come will be. It is called Christ's kingdom, or 
the everlasting kingdom. To be a kingdom we have seen 
that there has to be first a king, second, subjects and third 
territory: 1st. We all agree that Christ will be the king 
of his kingdom. 2d. Who will be the subjects of Christ's 
kingdom? This is the question. Says one, this is no 
question at all, as everybody knows that the saints will be 
the subjects of Christ's]kingdom to come. Everybody does 
not know any such thing. The saints are at this time, 
and in this age, the subjects of Christ's kingdom (the 
church), but at Christ's second coming the saints are to be 
seated with Christ upon his throne Rev. 3:21), so you see 
that the saints are not to be the subjects of Christ's ever- 
lasting kingdom. We will now read what Christ and the 
Apostles have to say about the everlasting kingdom, its 
king, its subjects and its territory. What they say muatt 
be right, and all who are taking the Bible as their guide 
n^ust accept what they say as the truth, and 
nothingbut the truth. Jesus says in Matt. 25:34. u Then 
shall the king say unto them on his right hand, come ye 
blessed of the Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for 
you from the foundation of the world," Here we once 
more reach the text that we began this little book with. 

This little text has made us look up the kingdom 
prepared at or from the foundation of the world. There 
are three thoughts in this text: 1st. Christ says there 
was a kingdom prepared at or from the foundation of the 
word; 2d, that it was prepared for the saints; 3d, that the 
saints would inherit the kingdom, as I have already 
showed that there was a kingdom from the foundation of 
the world, and that Adam was the king, the colored races 
were his subjects and the earth his territory. I will not 
in this chapter try to prove who was the king of the king- 
dom spoken of by Christ, or who were its subjects or what 
was its territory, but will notice what Christ has said 



THE TWO CREATIONS. 41 

^afr the saints shall ^nb^rit when he jqomes back to pur 
*<eaxtfr. He says that the saints shall "inherit the king- 
dom," We are to take the Word of Grpql for what it says 
in everything, and we must take it here, We all knoy 
what the word "inherit" means. Priijee Albert of Eng- 
land is or will be heir to the throne of England, and will 
inherit the throne at his mother's death. He will inherit 
the kingdom of England from his mother. We all can 
understand this statement, but could Prince Albert in- 
herit his mother's throne if she had no throne? You know 
that he could not: then, I ask, how could the saints in- 
herit a kingdom that was prepared from the foundation 
of the world, if there was no kingdom prepared at all? 
You know that they could not. Jesus says that the saints 
will inherit the kingdom, and that it was prepared for 
them before the foundation of the world. The saints could 
not be said to inherit a kingdom if there was no kingdom 
for them to inherit. Who said that the saints would in 
terit a kingdom? Christ said it himself, andwe must ad- 
mit that he knew what he was talking about.: This is 
proof that the sons of men are not the sons of Adam, who 
-' was the son of Grod." Adam's sons are to inherit the 
kingdom. You see if I inherit a farm from my father, my 
father had to own the farm before I could inherit it; so you 
see if the saints who are the offsprings of Adam inherit a 
kingdom, Adam, their forefather, had to own that kingdom 
before it could be said of his children that they inherited 
his kingdom. 

We will now look at another statement of Christ. He 
says in Luke 12:32, "Fear not little flock, for it is yoar 
Father's good pleasure to give you the kingdom." Here 
Christ tells the saints to fear not, as it was God's good 
pleasure to give them the kingdom. What kingdom? You 
must know by this time that it was the kingdom prepared 
from the foundation of the world. Christ also tells the 
apostles what they would receive for following him. 
(Matt. 19:27-28). "Then answered Peter and said unto 
him, behold, we have forsaken all and followed thee. 
What shall we have therefor?" And Jesus said unto him, 



42 THE TWO CREATIONS. 

"Verily, I say unto yon that ye which have followed me 
in the regeneration, when the son of man shall sit in th# 
throne of his glory, ye also shall sit upon twelve throne* 
judging the twelve tribes of Israel." From this state- 
ment we learn that in Christ's kingdom to come that 
there will be more than one throne. The apostles will 
have twelve thrones. Christ will have a throne himself, 
so you see that the kingdom to come will have thirteen 
thrones at least. Why have so many thrones? Because 
Christ is to be King of Kings and Lord of Lords; so you 
see that there has to be kings in the kingdom for him to 
be king over. Some have claimed that bis kingdom has 
come; but we know better, as we know that the apostles 
have not yet sat upon twelve thrones. The ten last tribes 
of Israel has not yet been found, and we know that they 
were lost 750 years, before Christ was on the earth. We 
know that these ten tribes of Israel will have to be 
found and return to the land of Israel before the apostles 
can judge them. We lind in Ezek., chapter 37, that the 
twelve tribes will return to their own land after the resur- 
rection; also Isaiah 65:21, "and they shall build houses and 
inhabit them and plant vineyards and eat the fruits of 
them. 55 Right here we learn that the Jews and Israel will 
not rebuild Jerusalem until they are raised from their 
graves. (Ezek. 37:12). 

Paul, in his letter to 1 Cor., chapter 15, says that 
flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God. As 
we have been looking at the word "inherit," we will not 
take up any more space with this word or its meaning, 
Paul does not say that flesh and blood cannot inherit the 
kingdom of God. A man could enter the kingdom of 
England, but would not inherit the kingdom. Why? Be- 
cause he is not the heir. The ones who will inherit the 
kingdom to, come must be made immortal by doing what 
Christ has commanded them to do in this life. The kings 
of the kingdom to come are all immortal like their Sa- 
vior. Then the lion and the lamb will lie down together 
and the nations learn war no more. Why? Because their 
rulers will rule in righteousness and will not tax the na- 



THE TWO CREATIONS. 43 

lions for a support, as they will be immortal kings and 
will not hereafter eat any more of the herb of the field, 
but will eat of the tree of life like their father Adam did 
before his fall. They have, through Christ, got back to 
the tree of life lost in their father Adam. Paul also tells 
us in Gal. 5:20 21, that idolatry, witchcraft, hatred; vari- 
ance, emulations wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, envy- 
ings, drunkenness, rivallings and such like shall not in- 
herit the kingdom of God. We find a class of people who 
will or shall not Inherit the kingdom of God. This class 
will be in the kingdom (Rev. 22:15), but will not inherit it. 
What is to be the everlasting kingdom? This ques- 
tion we will now try to answer by the Bible. The earth 
is to be the territory; the saints are to inherit the earth 
and dwell therein forever (Ps. 37:29). But says one the 
earth is to pass away. Yes, this is what the bible says, 
and it means just what it says. But we will look at the 
word "earth" for awhile. In Gen. 11:1 we read: "And 
the whole earth was of one language and one speech." 
Here we learn that the people are called the earth. Then 
we will read instead ot earth passing away the people 
passed away. But says one, it says the heaven passed 
away also. Yes, this is true, but what is the heaven 
thai passed away with the earth. You know that 
it could not be th« heaven where God is seated. Then it 
must be a heaven that belongs to this earth (people). 
Heaven means ruling powers. The ruling powers of this 
earth (people) are to pass away and there is to be a new 
earth (new people), who are to be made anew when they 
come up from their graves, and not before. Then there 
will be a new heaven (new ruling powers), as Christ will 
be here and will rule all nations in righteousness. We 
read in Rev. 5:10 that the saints are to reign on the earth. 
Then the earth is to be the territory of the everlasting 
kingdom yet to come. The nations are to be the subjects 
of the kingdom. Rev. 2:26-27 says: "To him that over- 
cometh will I give power over the nations and he shall 
rule them with a rod of iron." The nations of the earth 
then are to be the subjects of the everlasting kingdom. 



44 THE TWO CREATIONS. 

The kingdoms of this world are to become the kingdoms 
of Christ. (Rev. 11:15) John says that he heard an angel 
saying, "The kingdoms of this world are to become the 
kingdoms of our Lord and his Christ (the church), and he 
shall reign forever and ever. In Daniel 7:27 we read: 
-"And the kingdom and the dominion and the greatness of 
the kingdom under the whole heaven shall be given to 
the people of the saints of the Most High, whose king^ 
dom is an everlasting kingdom and all dominions shall 
serve and obey him." We see then that'the kingdoms of 
this world are to be Christ's everlasting kingdom. 

Here I will close this chapter, but will say more on 
this subject in another chapter of this book: Hoping that 
I have proven to the reader by the Word of God that the 
everlasting kingdom is to be on this earth, that Christ 
and his saints are to be its kings, that the nations (or 
heathens) are to be its subjects and that this earth is to 
be the territor}^. - 



IN DAYS OF OLD, 



Once there lived in Paradise 
The first Adam and his bride, 
There is to live in paradise 
The second Adam and his bride. 

The First Adam lost his happy home 
By doing only three things ; 
The second Adam regains his happy home 
By doing only three things. 

The first Adam heard a lie, 

The second Adam heard the truth;

CHAPTER VIII. 

CHRIST IS TO REIGN ON DAVID 'S THRONE AND ALL WHO* 

EVER COME WITH HIM. 

Christ is promised to reign forever on David's throne. 
(Ps. 89:29-36). u Once have I sworn by my holiness that 
I will not lie unto David. His seed shall endure forever, 
and his throne as the sun before me, as the moon, as the 
faithful witness before me in heaven." Her^ we learn 
that God has made an oath that the seed of David shall 
sit upon his throne forever, as the sun before me, as the 
moon as a witness in the heaven. The seed of David. 
Peter calls Christ the seed of David. (Acts 2:29-30). Da- 
vid's throne was overturned. (Ezek. 21:27). "I will over- 
turn, overturn, overturn it, and it shall be no more until 
he comes, whose right it is and I will give it him." We 
all know that David's throne was overturned about 600 
ye^rs before Christ, and that it is still overturned and the 
Jews are to-day without a king. Some have and do claim 
that Christ is now on David's throne; but this will not do, 
as the Bible tells us where Christ is at and what throne 
he is on. Christ is at this time on his Father's throne in 
heaven. Rev. 3:21 says that Christ is on the Father's 
throne. The throne that Christ is to sit upon was to be 
overturned, and we all know that the Father's throne was 
never overturned. If it ever was, what powers was it that 
overturned it? If the Fathers throne was ever overturned 
by any power, the same power can overturn it again. So 
God's throne is in danger of being overturned. So you 
see that the throne that was overturned was David's throne. 
Christ is to reign on the throne of David forever. We 
will ask Peter about the throne that Christ is to sit upon 
and what he says must be right, or at least we must take 
it as right. (Acts 2:30 to 33). "Therefore being a prophet 
and knowing that God had sworn with an oath to him 
that of the fruit of his loins, according to the flesh, he 
would raise up Christ to sit on his throne; he seeing this 
before, spake of the resurrection of Christ, that his soul 



46 THE TWO CREATIONS. 

was not left in hell; neither his flesh did see corruption. 
This Jesus hath God raised up. Whereof we all are wit- 
nesses; therefore, being by the right hand of God exalted 
and having received of the Father the promise of the Holy 
Ghost, he hath shed forth this which you now see and 
hear." In these statements of Peter we learn that David 
foresaw that Christ was to be raised up from the grave to 
sit upon his throne. This is why he spoke of the resur- 
rection of Christ from the grave. Peter also tells us that 
Christ is now at the right hand of God. How long will he 
remain at the right hand of the father? whom the heavens 
must receive until the restitution of all things spoken of 
by the mouth ot all the prophets since the world began. 

Peter — What will then happen? Then will he send 
Jesus Christ. What will Christ do when he comes back 
tcour earth? He will build again the tabernacle of David, 
which is fallen down, that the residue of man might seek 
after him upon whom my name is called. We see then 
that Christ is to come back to our earth to reign on David's 
throne. The place where Christ is to reign is on the earth, 
in the land of Canaan, where all Israel once lived and 
where they are all to live again after the resurrection from 
their graves. (Ezek.;37:12). 

The reign of Christ and his bride is to last forever. 
(Ps. 89:29); also. Rev. 11:15). Both say that the reign will 
last forever. The throne that Christ is now on is the 
Father's throne. (Rev. 3:21). Christ is to sit upon his 
own throne. (Rev. 3:21). The kingdoms of this world 
will be Christ's and his bride's kingdoms. (Rev. 11:15; 
Dan. 7:27). Christ is to be glorified again. He has been 
glorified once, but he is to be glorified again with all the 
saints. Christ has once been glorified. Peter tells us in 
Acts 3:13 that "God has glorified his son." Paul tells us 
in 1 Tim., 3:16, that "Christ was received up into glory." 
We learn from these statements that Christ has been glo- 
rified once and received up into glory. We will now see 
if he is to be glorified again and who will be glorified 
with him. Matthew tells us that Christ is to sit upon the 
throne of his glory at his second coming. (Matt. 25:31) 



THE TWO CREATIONS. 47> 

Paul tells us in Rom. 8:17 that the saints are to be glori- 
fied together with Christ if they suffer with him. 

Paul also tells us in Cal. 3:4 that when Christ shall 
appear then shall the saints appear also with him in glory. 
Peter speak's of Christs glory yet to be revealed. (1 Pet. 
4:13). Peter also tells the saints that they will be par- 
takers of Christ's glory that is to be revealed. (1 Peter 
5:1). Petex tells us that when the chief shepherd shall 
appear, ye shall receive a crown of glory that fadeth not 
away. (1 Peter 5:4). Peter also tells us that the God of 
all glory has called us by Christ Jesus to eternal glory 
after we have suffered awhile (1 Peter 5:10). 

All the saints are to be made kings. (Rev. 5:10). 
Question — What or who will they be kings over? The 
nations (heathens). (Retf. 2:26). AH the saints are to be 
made priests. Question — Who will they be priests over? 
The nations (heathens), called by Paul the creature. The 
saints are to be saviours. (Obadiah 1:21). Question — 
Who will these savious save? The creature Paul spake of. 
This is why the heathens cannot be converted. God's 
words says that the heathen (or Isles) shall wait for his 
coming. 

The honor that all the saints will have with Christ. 
(Ps. 110:6). "He shall judge among the heathens; he shall 
fill the places with the dead bodies; he shall wound the 
heads over many countries." Here we find Christ and 
his bride wounding the heads over many countries. This 
Christ is the seed of the woman now bruising the heads 
of the seed of the serpent, just as God'^ word said the 
seed of the woman should do. In Ps. 149:5 to 9, "Let the 
saints be joyful in glory; let them sing aloud upon beds; 
let the high praises of God be in their mouth and a two 
edged sword in their hand, to execute vengeance upon the 
heathen and punishment upon the people; to bind their 
kings with chains and their nobles with fetters of iron; 
to execute upon them the judgment written — this honor 
have all the saints. Praise ye the Lord. 

Reader, you see from this chapter that the saints are 
to be glorified with Christ at his coming and are made 



48 THE TWO CREATIONS. 

kings and priests and saviours with Christ in the everlast- 
ing kingdom to come. I will now close this chapter, and 
in the next chapter tell you how to be a king with Christ. 



CHAPTER IX. 



PREACH THE GOSPEL — WHO IT WAS PREACHED THE GOSPEL. 

We have at last come to the gospel of Christ, who 
preached the gospel, the Apostles and them alone. Since 
the death of the Apostles no man has ever preached the 
gospel. Why? Because no man can preach the gospel. 
A man may and can preach or teach what the apostles 
preached, as what they preached is written in the New 
Testament. Where did the Apostles get what they 
preached? They got it from Christ and the Holy Ghost. 
Where did Christ and the Holy Ghost get what they 
taught? They got it from God. Christ says that the 
words that I speak unto you are not my words, but the 
Father's who sent me. Here Christ tells us where he got 
what he taught the people. He got it from "The Father," 
when Christ made his last pray to God. He says, "The 
words that thou didst give me I have given them (Apostles), 
and they (Apostles) have received them (the words). (John r 
Chapter 17). This is how the Apostles got the words that 
they preached. When the Holy Ghost came to our earth 
he was not to speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall 
hear, that shall he speak. 

Here we learn how the Holy Ghost got what he taught. 
He heard it in heaven from God. The Apostles preached 
the gospel with the Holy Ghost sent down from God; that 
is, the Holy Ghost helped them preach the gospel. How 
could a man preach the gospel to-day by himself? as we 
find that the Apostles could not preach one word of the 
gospel until the Holy Ghost came to help them. If men 
can preach the gospel to day, they can do more than the 
Apostles could do in their day. The Apostles had to 
have the Holy Ghost to guide them into all truth. If the 
HolyGrhost guided the Apostles into all truth, then where 



the t Wo fcitfcAtitors. #§ 

Ik thtere aiiy iftore trttth for tbfe preacher of to-day to find. 
All truth is writteh do#h by the Apostles, guided by the 
Hbly ©host. 

We will n6w nbtifce the command to the Apodttfes: 
"(to yfeinto all the world and preach the gospel to every 
^feature." piark 16:16). Who did Christ command to go 
into all the World and preach the gospel to every trea- 
ttate? The Apostles, and none but the Apostles. They 
fafefe commanded to do two things: 1st. To go into all 
the world, and second to preach the gospel to every 
feteatture. The Apostles are the only ones that was ever 
commanded to do these two things, and Paul says that 
they done them. (Cal. 1:23). "If ye continue in the 
faith, grounded and settled, and be not moved away from 
the hope of the gospel, v 7 hich ye have heard and which 
Was preached to every creature which is under heaven. 
Where I, Paul, am made a minister. Here Paul tells us 
that in his day the command made by Christ to his 
Apostles had been obeyed; that the gospel had teen 
preached to every creature; not one left out; but all b^& 
heard the gospel preached. Jestis had said that the gospel 
must be preached into all the world and then shall the 
end be. End of what? Some say the end here spoken 
of is the end ot the world, and some say that it is the end 
Of Jerusalem; but I must differ with therii all. The end 
here spoken of is the end of the Apostles preaching, the 
gospel. When they had preached to every creatine tbfeir 
work ended. It was the end. No more gospel to preach 
and no tnore creatures t6 preach to. I have heard men 
Say that they were pleaching- the gospel of Christ. If 
they are they are doing what Christ never commanded 
them t6 do. Men can teafch or preach that J which is preached, 
and do what the Apostles commanded to be done. I 
have heard others say that God had called them to preach 
his gospel, but they did not hear a voice call thetfi as the 
Apostles did in days of old. Men are not called flow- to 
preafch, but commanded t6 preach what is already 
preached. The Apostle** Went into all the vtfotld. All 
the world then coitld *ot h**e meant all the earth, ttA w& 



50 THE TWO CREATIONS. 

know that the Apostles could not and did not go into all 
the earth, and yet they done all that Christ commanded 
them do. (Cal. 1:23). Why does not all the world mean 
all the earth? Because Paul says that the gospel had 
"been preached to every creature under heaven in his day, 
and we know that Paul or any of the Apostles never 
come to this country and preached to the Indians or Red 
Man. Then the Red Man is not one of the creatures to be 
preached to by the Apostles. This word u world" is used 
in a limited sense. It is said that all the world went jap 
to Jerusalem to be taxed. Now we know that the Indians 
of this country did not cross the Atlantic ocean and go up 
to Jerusalem to be taxed. Why? Because they could 
not cross the mighty waters. We also know that none 
"but those ruled by Rome w£nt up to Jerusalem to be 
taxed. All the world in this case meant Rome, and no 
more. 

Bat says one the Indians are creatures and the gos- 
pel had to be preached to them as well as other people. 
Horses and cattle are creatures, too. Is the gospel to be 
preached to the beasts of the field? You say no; that 
creature does not mean beast, but it means people of 
every color. Where did you learn that creature means 
all people of every color? Oh, that is what the word crea- 
ture means. We will try your meaning and see how it 
will do. You say that creature means people? Yes Well, 
(Prov. 30:25) tell us that the ants are a little people, then 
if your meaning of creature is right the ants must have 
the gospel preached to them. Where is the preacher that 
would take the job to preach to the ants? If you could 
find one he would soon qiiit his calling. You see that it 
will not do to put a meaning on God's word. When we 
turn and read the fifth chapter of Genesis, we see who 
the creatures are. They are Adam's race. The gospel 
was to; be preached to every creature of Adam's race, and 
Paul says that it was preached to every creature. This 
is proof that the black or colored races are not of Adam's 
race. ... Bat says one, does not Peter say, "But in every 
nation he that feareth him and worketh righteousness is 



THE TWO CREATIONS. 51 

accepted with him." (Acts. 10:35), Yes, this is just 
what Peter said, and it means just what it says. Are not 
the colored races nations? Yes, they are. Well, then, 
some of them are accepted of God. There were at the 
time Peter was talking not less than 100 nations of 
Adam's race on the earth. Peter thought that no natiop. 
except the Jews had any right to the promises that Go# 
made to Abraham. The ten tribes of Israel had as iiiuch 
right to the promises as the Jews. The ten] had been 
carried away from their land and was scattered among all 
nations and was called Gentiles, because they had ; for- 
saken the law of their God. These ten tribes Christ told 
his Apostles to go and preach to, and they were scat- 
tered among all nations. To preach to them, the Apostles 
would have to go among all nations. Christ commanded 
his Apostles to go to the lost sheep of the house of Israel 
and preach to them (Matt. 10:6), besides Abraham had 
eight sons and they, too, had a right to the promises made 
to Abraham. They would make eight nations at Jeast. 
Then there was Lott and his two sons; they made two na- 
tions. Then there were all of Abraham's father's house 
who had aright to these promises. There were also Ham 
and Japheth, Noah's other two sons. They also had a 
right to the promises, as they were the seed of Adam; 

But we will come closser home. There was Esau 
, and Isaac, son and brother of Jacob. He had a right to 
the promises of Abraham, as he was his great grand- son. 
These people made many nations. They were the sons 
of Adam, who was the son of God. Some of these people 
of Adam's race were scattered among all nations arid are 
included in the "every creature." The gospel was fo> be 
preached to all the Gentiles upon whom my name is 
called. (Acts 15:17). Here we learn that there some Gen- 
tiles that has not God's name called on them. They 
were not to be preached to, Why? Because they are 'the 
sons of men (colored races), and not sons of God (Adam). 
If they were they would have the name that God called 
upon their son of God (Adam). The name Adam is a 
holy name; that God called upon the man he made a liv- 



52 THE TWO CREATIONS. 

ing soul. God's word call the same name upon Christ. 
He is called the second man Adam. (1 Cor. 15th chapter). 
The first cteation God does not call by any naihe, except 
male and female. But we will see something more about 
this name. These sons of God are called Gentiles. Why? 
Because they had turned away from God. We read that 
they have all gone astray. In Rev. 18:8, John tells us of 
a power that will come on the earth. "That all power 
tvas given him over all kindreds and tongues and nations, 
and all that dwells upon the earth shall worship him 
whose names are not written in the book of life of the 
lamb slain from the foundation of the world." Here we 
learn that some had their names written in the Lamb 
book of life from the foundation of the world, and some 
did not have their names written in the book of life from 
the foundation of the world. Here are two classes of 
people plainly brought to view. One class had their 
name written in the Lamb book of life from the founda- 
tion of the world; the other class did not have their name 
written in the Lamb book of life from the foundation of 
the world. One class is not to worship this great power. 
Why? Because their name was written in the book of 
life from the foundation of the world. They are the sons 
of Adam, who was the son of God. The other class will 
be caused to worship this power, or him as it called, be- 
cause they did not have their name written in the Lamb 
book of life from the foundation of the world. 

Dear reader, you see from this statement that there 
aire two classes of people on the earth, sons of God and 
sons of men. Some of these sons of God was among all 
nations, and when they turned to God in righteousness 
they are accepted of him. This is just what Peter said, 
iio more and no less. 

I now leave this subject with you, and in the next 
chapter will see what the gospel is. We have in this 
chapter been learning two things: 1st. Who could preach 
the gospel and have found that the Apostles alone could 
and did preach the gospel; and second, who the every 
creatures were that the gospel was to be pleached to, and 



THE TWO CREATTNNS. 53 

I believe that we have, with the word of God, proven who 
the every creatures are, sons of Adam's race, and not the 
colored races, called the sons of men. 



CHAPTER X, 



WHAT IS THE GOSPEL. 



We all know that we have the gospel written down 
just as the apostles preached it, but we differ as to what 
the gospel is. Some say that it is good news. This is 
right as far as it goes. Thegosftel has good news in it, 
but good news is not all of the gospel but only a small 
part of the gospel. Some say that the gospel is the death, 
the burial and the resurrection of Christ; that the sinner 
dies to sin and is buried with Christ in baptism and 
raised to walk in a new life. This is also true, but it is 
not all the gospel. % "The gospel is the power of God un- 
to salvation," says Paul. To die to sin and be buried 
with Christ in baptism and raised to a new life does not 
give us salvation. It only puts us in the way to get 
salvation. Paul, in writing to the saints, who had died 
to sins and had been burfed with Christ in baptism and 
raised to walk in anew life. He says for them to work 
out their salvation. This was that Paul who said, "The 
gospel is the power of God unto salvation," that told the 
saints to work out their own salvation after they had be- 
come saints So we see that the gospel is more than the 
death, burial and resurrection of Christ. "What is the 
gospel?" says one. It contains all the commandments of 
Christ and all the promises of God made to Adam's race 
since the fall of Adam, nothing more and nothing less. The 
gospel contains facts, commands and promises. The facts 
of the gospel we must hear or read in order to faith. The 
commands of the gospel we must obey in order to become 
an heir of God. The promises are to be enjoyed by be- 
lieving and obeying the commands of the gospel. We 
believe the facts of the gospel because we cannot Help it. 



54 THE TWO CREATIONS. 

Old Jacob believed that his son was dead when he saw 
his boy's coat. He could not help believing that his son 
was alive and ruler over all the land of Egypt when he 
saw the wagons that his son had sent to carry him down 
into Egypt. When the facts of the gospel are heard, a 
a man cannot help believing them, but this will not save 
him. : Why not ? The devils believed and trembled. Who 
werethese devils who believed in Christ ? Men are called 
devils, and as we have been showing that there was two 
creations, the sons of God and the sons of men, these 
devils that believed were the sons of men and not sons 
of God. This is why they could not be saved. They 
were not subjects of gospel address. We read thai: some 
of the devils knew Christ and asked him if he had 
comfe to torment them before their time. There is only 
one part of the gospel that a man can and must do to ob- 
tain- the pro.mises of God. He must do Christ's command- 
ments. These he can and must do if ever saved. If he 
does the : commandments of Christ. He will reap all the 
promises of the gospel that causes him to do the com> 
mandments. He does them to get the promises of the 
gospel. To do these commandments we may have to 
forsake lather, mother, wife and children and our 
own 'selves. We may have to wander in dens and 
caves; but the promises of the gospel are worth all 
this sacrifice and more too. Christ told Peter that all 
who * had done all of this for his sake, when the 
son of man should come in his glory, that they also should 
sit upon twelve thrones judging the twelve tribes of the 
children of Israel. What are the promises of the gospel? 
There are many, but I will only state a few of them here. 
1.— Eternal life. 2. — Redemption. 3>— To invent the eartli 
and dwell therein for years. 4. — The kingdoms of this 
world are to be given the saints. 5;- — The saints are to be^ 
crowned kings and seated with Christ upon his throne, 
[Rev.'8:21:] 6.— ^The saints are to rule the nations of thW 
earth witha rod of iron. 7.— The saints aire td have a city -■ 
to live in ; where they will have- gold paved streets, an<i- 
where they will find the tree of lif^ lost by ;Adam.- 3 No* ' 



THE TWO CREATIONS. 55 

man can preach all the i gospel < without preaching these, 
grand promises of God, to all who will obey him. But 
today we hear that it will not do to preach all the promi- 
ses of God to the people. They say preach and tell the 
people to do the commands of Christ, and they will get 
all the promises of the gospel, whether they, understand 
them or not, but Paul, James and Peter, did not think so 
in their day, as I find that they all preached these promi- 
ses of the gospel. Paul says that the saints will receive a 
kingdom that cannot be shaken. [Heb. 12:28.]. James 
says, hath not God chosen the poor of this world rich in 
faith and heirs of the kingdom, which he has promised to 
them that love him. [James 2:5.] Here we learn that God 
had promised a king to the poor in this world hut rich in 
faith. James preached this kingdom and told the saints 
that they were heirs of a kingdom that God had promised 
them. What kingdom was this? The kingdom of this 
world. [Rev. 11:15; Dan. 7:27.] When Phillip preached 
at Samaria, he preached a kingdom to them. When they 
believed Phillip preaching the things concerning the 
kingdom of God, and the name of Jesus Christ, they were 
baptized, both men and women. We see for this state- 
ment that Phillip preached a kingdom to Samaria, also 
the name of Christ. Dear reader you see then that the 
saints are promised a kingdom, and that it is the king- 
dom of this world. I will now close this little book by 
telling you how to become an heir to this kingdom God 
has in his word promised the saints. 1. — You must be- 
lieve his word just as you find it written in the Bible. 
2. — You must repent of your sins and turn to God with 
all your heart. 3. — You must confess that Jesus is the 
Christ with your mouth before men. , 4. — You must be 
buried with Christ in baptism, lor the remission of your 
sins. These four steps will bring you into Christ's church, 
but the church of Christ is not the kingdom promised to 
the saints, as we see that the saints are to inherit the 
kingdom. [Mat. 25:34.] Faith, repentance, confession 
and baptism, brings us into tjae church; now as saints we 
must do something more to inherit the kingdom. 1. -We

58 THE TWO CREATIONS. 

DEATH IS CONQUERED 



L. P. DIVINNE. 
Death, you have reigned for many years;. 
You have made us all shed bitter tears, 
You have no respect for man, 
And before you none can stand. 

You have no pily and no heart, 
At the mention of your name we start; 
We have bowed before you and plead, 
But not one kind word have you said. 

We have seen you pluck the brightest flowery 
Far well you know it was in your power 
To carry them to your prison cell, 
Where they cannot return to tell. 

The horrors of that awful place, 
Where no one wears a smiling face; 
Where they groan and wait the day 
That Christ shall bid them come away- 

At last the mighty king appears, 
And bids us all to dry our tears, 
For he has come at last to save 
All from death, hell and the grave. 

Death now begins to lay his plans 
To capture this most mighty man ; 
Before the High Priest he is brought, 
And for evidence death sought. 

The witnesses state that they know Christ well. 
And that they had heard him tell 
How he would destroy this place 
And bring upon the Jews disgrace. 

This was enough for them to cry, 
This imposter he must die; 
Death cries he is not the man 
To rule this people and this land. 

Death cries you mock him of hie claim.,. 
And I will take him to hell in chains 
Where he will forever be 
And then of him you will be free. 



THE TWO CREATIONS. 59 

To death prison he has to go, 
There to meet his dreadful foe, 
These mighty kings meet face to face. 
In that dark and awful place. 

For mastery they now contend 
In that dark and doleful land; 
Death cries you belong to me, 
And in my prison you will ever be. 

For three long days and nights 
These mighty kings fight in their might, 
But at last we hear Christ say 
Death you are conquered this day. 

Christ now sets death prisoners free, 
And brings them back for men to see 
That he had conquered death and the grave r 

And all of Adam's race he would save. 

He tells the Apostles I go away , 
But am coming back one day to stay; 
Upon my throne I then will be, 
And every nation will bow their knee. 

Upon David's throne I will reign, 
"When the wicked one is slain; 
Then that throne shall be rebuilt, 
And all wicked rule shall melt. 

Before him as the dew of morning, 
When the light of day is dawning ; 
Then all darkness shall pass away, 
As his word doth plainly say. 

Then all will know him from afar, 

For his glory shall shine as yon bright star; 

His reign will last forever more, 

From land to land and shore to shore. 

Upon his throne he'll sit us down, 
And upon our heads he'll place a crown; 
He will place a sceptre in our hands, 
To iWe the nations of every land.
